Commandeer

This extension helps to manage AWS and LocalStack. Commandeer is a desktop application for managing both LocalStack and AWS in one common interface. The aim of this extension it to provide easy hooks into seeing your LocalStack status as well as bouncing between Visual Code and Commandeer.

We are actively building out more robust features for this extension. Including the ability to view your actually resources, such as DynamoDB tables, Lambda Functions, S3 Buckets and much more.
